Thread: BEST SONGS OF THE SEVENTIES

There are some songs that simply MUST appear on any list of 70's hits, and this is one of 'em."Listen to What the Man Said" is one of those unmistakeable 70's songs that's hard to catagorize because nothing seems to describe it well, but hard to forget too.

I find it impossible to imagine the 70's without this wonderful 1975 tune from Paul McCartney and WINGS:

The mid 70's was when a genre called progressive rock was at it's prime, one of my favourite progressive rock bands from this time would be Rush, and their best progressive song would have to be their 20 minute epic 2112, the video is split into 3 parts, if you have time to listen to the whole thing, I recommend you do if you're a fan of prog rock!

Every song on Apostrophe/Overnight Sensation by Frank Zappa and every song on Starless and Bible Black by King Crimson.Most of my favorite tunes have been mentioned but just in case I'll throw in Heart of the Sunrise, the version from Fragile.

One of my favourite supertramp songs, at one point I knew how the play the opening on piano

This is the music I would commute home from work by. Even today this album still impresses me with it's unique style and creative orchestration. From what I've read, a lot of people put Breakfast in America right at the top of outstanding 70's albums. And I agree!
